Hello. Can anyone help with suggestions of how to remove exterior emulsion from brickwork. I recently bought a house and the previous owners have painted the brickwork on the back of the house just to the level of the top of the kitchen window. It looks as if its only had a couple of coats. The house is only 11 years old and the brickwork is really nice and new looking so I don't know why they painted it, I'd just like to get it back to how it was. The brickwork isn't very rough but it's not perfectly smooth either.
